All Ancestors of Harry Potter Characters in Hogwarts Legacy

Phineas Nigellus Black

Hogwarts Legacy - Phineas Nigellus Black
House Slytherin
Occupation Headmaster of Hogwarts

Phineas Nigellus Black is the pompous headmaster of Hogwarts. He is known as the least popular Hogwarts headmaster for his disinterest with students and belief in the superiority of purebloods.

Ancestor of the Black Family

Notable Descendants • Sirius Black
• Bellatrix Lestrange
• Narcissa Malfoy
• Nymphadora Tonks
• Draco Malfoy

Phineas Nigellus Black is part of the great Family of Black, and his belief of pureblood supremacy is taken from his upbringing in a prominent magical family. He was also sorted into Slytherin House, like most members of the Black family.

This makes Phineas the ancestor of many Harry Potter characters that come from the Black Family. He is the great-great-grandfather of Sirius Black, Bellatrix Lestrange, and Narcissa Malfoy, to name a few. This also means he is the ancestor of Nymphadora Tonks and Draco Malfoy.
